Once again I ask, some one give us some data.  What's the difference between 702 .25 and 705 .25 Sentries.

702:
Side bolt
Hollow shroud
Gauge under handguard
Foster fill
Auto safety
$275

705:
Side lever
Pressed on moderator
Gauge at the end of the pressure tube
Fill probe
Manual safety
$320

[Wayne52]

My 705-2 is a forward style bolt with the long barrel and once piece air tube with the gauge mounted on the front of the tube that has the fill probe.  It don't have the burst disk either like my 705-9K which  has the side lever.  At first when I seen there was also a newer 705-9T like Don's most recent purchase that's a .25 however I think that there's also someone that posted they have the 705-9T in .22 as well.  I know that Dons manual is for the side lever but the manual I got for my 705-9K don't have the updated manual that shows it with the forward mounted bolt when in reality it's a side lever.  It's probably the Chinese way of getting rid of the older manuals for the bolt action HC (high capacity).  Possibly the difference from the 705-9K & 9T is the production run

Complete Model Number - 702-3 ,Caliber .22 short barrel,
Serial Number   - 111202674

Any special notes :  location of pressure gage,  in bottom of forearm.
 Foster fill port front of tube, manual safety.   Mods - Opened TP / Barrel to .175 , Shoots slugs up to 30 gr. Not pellet picky. Though a crappy pellet will not magically become a one holler  

I may add that mine has the square shroud made of polymer, very little sound moderation.

If possible can you add a couple of photo's showing that square shroud? 

Missed-um
The only weight I have found so far is that of Wes-Bob post of 7#'s 13oz for the 705-9T model,
I don't have a scale that will weight that low, yet.

Thanks,
Don

When I had my .22 apart the valve I.D. seemed to be smaller than the .25 but I could be wrong.  I'd like to order a couple valves from Mike if he has any available for sale

I got my .22 back together and am very happy with the results.

[Nvreloader]

Thanks Wayne

Is that the REX scope on top, if so how do you like it?
I see that it has a Blue color for the reticule?

Thanks
Don

[Wayne52]

Yes it is the Rex scope Don, I've heard that the blue is good for seeing stuff in low light but I never put a battery in it, it has a bubble level in it and it seems to hold a  zero great..

[Nvreloader]

Thanks Wayne

Got one coming............
Yea,
I heard the same thing and I want to try it............., as my colorblindness is causing  problems,
on my end.....................

Guys
Has anyone have the NUMBERED power adjustment wheel, if so ,
can you please post a good photo of it?

I am attempting to number/letter the tabs on my power wheels,
so I can keep track of my settings etc.............

I reread, all the posts and see info about the "Marked" power wheel etc.

Thanks,
Don

I was going to at the time of the post, but seems I have not taken any pics of that gun LOL, swore I did some when I had it apart , will get the camera out and take a few candid shots for sure

[Wayne52]

I was just looking on Flying Dragons website and all the rifles have gone up $5 in price.  He must have done that since yesterday because yesterday it didn't show an increase.

[Wayne52]

Well I went and did it ordered me another Xisico Sentry, this time I bought one of the short ones.  They're actually a 702-5 now and they have a one piece tube on them as well. I talked with Mike on the phone, heck of a nice guy for sure.  He's going to have the 25 cals tomorrow but I'll be mainly using the new one for in the back yard around here for them red squirrels.  I will have Rocker 1 make a good LDC for this one so it's back yard worthy.  He told me how to make a removal tool for the bleed block in them and it's exactly what I imagined it would be except Xisisco don't send him the tool like I suspected and he had to make it himself too.  Basically it's a bolt with the head cut off with a rod welded to it, when I get my new one I'll take it out and go to the hardware store to find a bolt that fits it and make my own for these guns.

Thanks Wayne

I have sent 2 different emails to the home base of Xisico here in the US,
and as of this date I have never received a reply yet.

Will be awaiting your report of the new arrival...........

What caliber, 177?
I would believe that this platform would be a great HEAVY weight 177 launcher?....

Thanks,
Don

[Wayne52]

I talked with him for a while on the phone and he's going to be getting Xisico compressors in soon from what he said, It probably won't be long and they'll be on his website.

[Leo 2018]

Finally got my new 705-9k .22 cal rifle out and ran a few rounds thru it. I love the side lever its alot easier than bolt action on my gauntlet. 22. Did have a loose barrel but mike told me what size allen wrench and where to tighten it
Love the Rex scope its great. Mike is a good man to deal with.look forward to next purchase.

Have you tried out that Blue color combo on the Rex scope, in low light conditions yet?

I'll find out as soon as the Pony Express makes a pass by here..........

Thanks,
Don

[Wayne52]

From Iowa to Michigan in 2 days from the time that I ordered it I received my 702-5, remarkable shipping no doubt. I even have time to hit the woods with my 705-9K this afternoon, maybe I'll spot a ground hog and feed him a slug.

[Dead Springer]

Went and did it.  I've been holding off a little, waiting for the Xisico compressors to be in stock at the same time as the Sentry 705's.  Then saw Mike's post about the demo model .22 he had at a small discount.  I couldn't resist!  I'll have to pump it for a while until the compressors finally come in, but that's ok.  I just couldn't resist the value proposition. Based on what I've seen from you all, the sentry ticks all of the boxes except one: Adjustable power - check, Accurate - check, Reliable and well built - check, Easy to work on - check, Good looking - well... no but I think I can get used to it if it performs like you all say.  Can't wait to see!
